Chapter Forty-Eight: The Mutation of the Painting Boat
Since Wei Dong left Jinlingwei, Yan Mu was grounded by his master Hua Mengzhu in the flower building, and he couldn't go anywhere, and devoted himself to cultivation.
And it is strictly ordered that you must not go out unless you are promoted to the Liangyi realm.
In order to prevent Yanmu from running away or not concentrating on cultivation, Hua Mengzhu has been personally guarding and supervising Yanmu's cultivation.
These days, Yan Mu has been suffocated, and he has been cultivating the Heavenly Heart Recipe under the supervision of Hua Mengzhu.
Although I had drunk peach blossom wine in the Peach Blossom Dock before, and my cultivation had improved a lot, there was still some distance from being promoted to the Liangyi Realm.
Jinling Weihualou is located on the side of a mountain forest on the edge of Xuanwu Lake in Jinling.
Built along the lake, the scenery is beautiful. The corridor waist is back, and the eaves teeth are high pecked.
In the distance is the most famous Purple Mountain in Jinling.
It's just that at night, I can't see it very clearly, and I only see the female disciples who are patrolling the night with lanterns in the flower building, all dressed in white, walking back and forth.
At this time, there was a cat-waisted figure on the pavilion like a thief, constantly avoiding the sight and sentry of the night patrol disciples, flashing between the pavilions, hiding and hiding.
Isn't this person just a playboy who has been grounded in the building for many days, compared to foreign thieves, he is obviously more familiar with domestic thieves.
Yan Mu, who finally seized the opportunity tonight, took advantage of Master Hua Mengzhu's business to go out, so he wanted to sneak out and have a good time.
I saw that after Yan Mu dodged the last group of night patrol disciples, he turned over and came to the attic, and then fell to the ground lightly, chic and natural.
Looking at the flower building behind him, Yan Mu habitually threw away the folding fan and said in a relaxed tone, "Whew...... Finally came out, and finally didn't find out. The air outside is still fresh, although there is no bright moon, but it can't live up to the starry sky. If you don't go to the Qinhuai River for a few drinks, I'm really sorry for such a night view!"
Just as Yan Mu was about to leave in style, a voice suddenly sounded, staggering Yan Mu.
"Little junior brother, why don't you meditate and practice in the building at night?"
Yan Mu wiped the sweat on his head, looked at the second senior sister sitting on the eaves, and said with a hippie smile: "Second senior sister, you see that I have been in the building for many days, and I will be a fool at home. ”
The second senior sister propped her hands on the edge of the eaves and waved her legs and nodded, "Well, what you said makes sense." But the master said, you can't let you go out until you reach the Liangyi realm, I was ordered to watch, if you leave and are found by the master, I will also be punished. ”
Yan Mu flew three or two times and sat next to the second senior sister, and said coquettishly: "I know that the second senior sister loves me the most, you see, the second senior sister is beautiful, the most reasonable, and the cultivation is powerful." And the master is not in the building, so you can let me go out to play, second senior sister. ”
Yan Mu said while shaking the second senior sister, and he was not stingy with his praise.
giggled at the second senior sister, "Okay, okay, it's not impossible for you to go out to play, but there are two conditions." ”
As soon as Yan Mu heard that there was a play, he hurriedly smiled and said: "I know that the second senior sister is the best, the second senior sister, you say, do you want to eat almond crisp or rouge gouache or beautiful jewelry, I promise to bring it to the little junior brother." ”
The second senior sister slapped Yan on the wood with her backhand, and said angrily: "Phew! Just thinking about bribing me, it's less bad luck with you." Remember, one is that you must come back before dawn, and the other is that you are not allowed to cause trouble, you know?"
"No problem, Second Senior Sister, I will definitely come back before dawn. As for causing trouble, who will trouble me in Jinlingwei, then I'll go!" Before he finished speaking, Yanmu jumped off the eaves impatiently.
"Hey, don't forget to bring two boxes of Lao Fu Ji's almond crisp. The second senior sister covered her mouth and whispered hard.
"I see, Second Senior Sister. Yan Mu waved his hand, and disappeared in a flash.
"It's still a smart little brother, I know what I like to eat, but don't come back drunk. The second senior sister fell into the flower building like a swallow, clapped her hands and went back to her house.
It's relatively late in the season, and the streets of Jinlingwei have become deserted.
However, the most lively thing in Jinlingwei at night is not the main street in the city, but the Qinhuai River that passes through the city not far away.
Colorful lanterns, flowery girls, hawkers, all kinds of shops on the shore, and one painting boat after another on the river.
Among them, the most famous is the 12 painting boats of the Qinhuai River, all of which are small and chaotic Qing people will make friends all over the world.
Since ancient times, the painting boat of the Qinhuai River in Jinling has been famous for the big chaos and small chaos, among which the big chaos is dominated by the rich son who wants to live happily all night, and the small chaos is mainly based on the merry and talented people of the literati.
Among them, the small chaos of the twelve painting boats is a lot of popular and widely spread stories, in addition to the appearance of the twelve painting boats of the girls who can enter, there are also good skills, corresponding to the twelve painting boats.
The twelve paintings are named after the twelve characters of spring, summer, autumn and winter, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, wind, frost, rain and snow.
The Qinhuai River under the fame is a veritable gold cave, rich is the master, and no money is just a leaf of duckweed in the river.
You must know that Yanmu's nickname is Playboy, and the word "flower" is not just about Hualou.
These twelve painting boats are no stranger to Yan Mu, who is an old regular.
Looking at the Qinhuai River like a ribbon, Yan Mu took a deep breath, full of fine wine and rouge fragrance, which inevitably made people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
Yan Mu walked to the fifth piano boat with a light car, and the little guy on the shore saw Yan Mu dressed in white from afar, and hurriedly waved warmly to say hello.
Yan Mu who walked to the front casually took out a silver ticket with a face value of one hundred taels from his arms and the hand of the small servant, this is the rule of the twelve painting boats of the Qinhuai River, called "door fee", each person can pay one hundred taels before entering the boat, and pay for the wine later, so as not to bring in any third-rate goods and disturb the guests' Yaxing.
Yan Mu casually threw a piece of broken silver to the little guy, and the little guy happily took it, patted the horse and said, "Master Yan, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I'm getting more and more handsome." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, is there still a seat in front of you. Yan Mu looked at the second floor of the piano boat and listened to the faint sound of the piano coming from inside.
"Yes, yes, there are many, come here, take Yan Ye to the elegant seat on the second floor, and serve good wine and food. As soon as the little guy at the door finished calling, a person ran out of the boat and walked to the second floor of the piano boat with Yanmu.
When Yanmu arrived on the second floor of the Qin Boat, a piece of the Qin girl had just finished playing, and dozens of guests below all applauded.
"Yan Gongzi is good!"
"I haven't seen Miss Qin for a long time, not only is she more beautiful, but her voice is more beautiful. ”
Seeing Yanmu come in, the Qin girl got up and gave a blessing, and she was praised every day and got used to it, and she didn't have the general cozy posture of a little girl, and she was praised by Yanmu and was polite and smiled.
However, some of the sons below who were not deeply involved were fascinated by Miss Qin's laughter, but they were more intoxicating than drinking two catties of wine.
Some of the guests who knew Yanmu also greeted warmly, and no matter how bad they were, they nodded their heads, after all, they were more or less "like-minded" when they met in the Qinhuai River.
"Just after the end of the song, Yan Gongzi just came again, it stands to reason that Yan Gongzi 'holds a song', can you need the Qin girl to ''push forward'' to send it. The pen and ink maid next to the piano girl asked.
Yan Mu smiled and shook his head, no need. Although Yan Mu is called a playboy, he just likes to come to this kind of place and simply watch the beauty enjoy the scenery of the Qinhuai River and drink flower wine.
Otherwise, it would not be a frequent visitor to the small chaos of the twelve painting boats, but a frequent visitor to the chaos of other painting boats in Qinhuai River.
Occasionally, if you are interested, you will also participate in the fun, but it is just pure fun, unlike those flower drinkers, who spend a lot of money just to get the first place and want to get the favor of the owner, but unfortunately more flower drinkers kneel under other people's pomegranate skirts.
The look of disappointment in the eyes of the Qin girl flashed, although Yan Mu patronized his piano boat the most, but he just liked to listen to music, and he didn't have the slightest idea about himself.
In fact, Miss Qin also knows that many of the sisters of the Twelve Painting Boat hope to be favored by the playboy Yanmu and be redeemed.
Playboy Yanmu is a person who sometimes talks vulgarly, but he is not good at all, and he is not at all different from the flower and wine customers who come and go.
The rules of each of the 12 painting boats in Jinling are different, and there are many rules for the entertainment of guests.
And just asked by the pen and ink maid about the rules of the piano boat, the piano boat can accommodate a maximum of fifteen guests, and each guest will 'hold a song' when boarding the ship, which can be a variety of themes, as long as the piano girl can play, then the piano girl can be asked to play.
If any guest wants to listen to the piano girl play his own song first, he can ask the pen and ink maid to 'press forward' after the end of the song.
The ranking of the 'bet' is one hundred taels, and you can also choose to directly 'bet' five hundred taels of silver, that is, the first to play.
Of course, if there are other guests who want to give priority to the piano girl to play the 'holding song', they can also 'bet' again on the basis of others, but they need six hundred taels of silver, and so on.
Each 'pre-bet' or 'pre-bet' will be recorded by a pen and ink maid, and the second round of 'guessing' will begin after the end of one round of 'holding songs'.
'Guess the song' is a piece of two or three pieces played by the piano girl, and then the guest only needs to guess the name of one of the songs.
Each person has a chance to 'guess the song', everyone can spend 100 taels of others to 'guess the question' before the start of the accumulation of their own 'guess the song' opportunity, the person who is 'guessed' can also 'keep the question', and add another 100 taels on the basis of the person who 'guesses the song', and the person who guesses the song 'guesses' enters the third round of 'song'.
The "song" is written by the guests who enter the third round, the qin girl answers the question with the qin, and the person who is answered by the qin girl is out, and the successful stump of the qin girl continues, until there is only one person left.
Of course, those who are out of the game can 'keep their positions', but it is three hundred and two once. Similarly, in addition, those who are difficult to succeed can also 'cut' the person who 'keeps the position' can also increase the price by another 100 taels, and the person who 'keeps the position' needs to continue to add 100 taels of 'position protection' in this round, and the two can continue to increase the price in turn.
In the end, the highest bidder in the first round, the highest bidder in the second round, and the winner in the third round, the three won the first prize of the night.
The three leaders can discuss the piano and the moon alone with the qin girl, and watch the scenery of the Qinhuai River.
And only these three have the right to redeem her life with her consent.
Those who come out to play are all about face, this kind of place is not short of rich and powerful characters, and silver naturally doesn't matter, often like this simplest game rules will become a competition for net worth and face.
Yan Mu habitually sat by the window, drinking wine, looking at the sparkling water outside the window, reflecting the lanterns and pedestrians coming and going.
I don't know who just 'bet' a song "Cold River Moon" just responded to the previous scene, but this person was lucky that no one added one hundred taels to continue to bet, and the stars fell into it.
There is a feeling of not knowing that the sky is in the water after being drunk, and the boat is full of dreams and pressing the galaxy.
A glass of wine in the throat, the cold wind blowing outside, is much refreshing.
Yan Mu has been puzzled in the past two days as to why his cultivation has not felt the growth, and he has been practicing hard in his immortal heart formula, among which the three biggest characteristics of the immortal heart recipe said by Master Hua Mengzhu: "trick", "qi" and "explosion".
Yan Mu thought that he had mastered everything very well, and there was no problem with the Immortal Heart Technique he had cultivated, but he couldn't figure out why his cultivation suddenly stopped.
Yan Mu has also been running the True Qi several times, and the meridians and veins have been running for the Great Zhou Tian, and the spine dragon has access to the limbs and hundreds of bones unimpeded, and there is no obvious blockage, or old diseases, dark injuries, or hidden dangers of stasis.
The place where the dantian qi sea is also true like the sea, surging and moving, pregnant and nurtured in it.
And Master Hua Mengzhu also once said that Yanmu's qualifications are the best choice, as long as he is diligent and unremitting, he will definitely be no problem at the peak of the Liangyi Realm like Hua Mengzhu in the future, but if you want to pursue the legendary Infinite Realm in the Great Perfection, it still depends on chance.
But Yan Mu never expected that he would take the lead in cultivating before he even encountered the bottleneck of being promoted to the Liangyi Realm, which was a bit unbelievable.
"I shouldn't be the chosen son, but shouldn't the chosen son of others all the way forward, it doesn't make sense that I haven't reached the bottleneck and won't be promoted to the card master. "Thinking about Yanmu makes me want to wander.
I just don't think much about it, and it may not be good to blindly force it to spoil my mentality, and sometimes it's better to cultivate as you like.
Just like the letter Wei Dong sent to himself, maybe he looks at the scenery like Wei Dong, and he will inexplicably become the great master of the Liangyi Realm when he drinks.
It turns out that wine is a good thing, and it is right to sneak it out on your own.
Even if the master found out, there was no reason to punish himself, he slipped out in order to break through the Four Elephants Realm, anyway, Yan Mu was thinking of such a crooked reason to comfort himself.
But when I think of this, I can't help but feel a little worried, people have reached the bottleneck of the Four Elephants Realm, what is this, it's difficult.
Just when Yan Mu was wandering outside the world, something suddenly grew in size in front of him and flew towards the door in front of him.
Fortunately, Yan Mu's eyes were quick, and he burst the flying stool with a volley, and if it was replaced by an ordinary drinker, it is estimated that he would have died in the beginning.
Yan Mu was a little annoyed, in Jinlingwei, there were still people who dared to make a move on him, I was afraid that they didn't want to live.
Then I heard a noise outside, and someone shouted, "Kill, kill, kill!"
